Simultaneous in the Booth

In simultaneous interpretation, the interpreter works in a booth using a headset to listen to the speaker while simultaneously relaying the message in the target language. 
2-3 interpreters per target language work together in a soundproof booth and alternate every 20 to 30 minutes due to cognitive load. 
The participants use headsets and select the language they wish to listen to, following the proceedings without interruption and with only a few seconds’ delay.
Simultaneous interpretation can be used in meetings of almost any size, whatever the number of languages.
Our interpreters have the expertise required to confidently deliver accurate translation, and to withstand the high cognitive pressure of simultaneous interpretation.
